(QID:AN110) Refer to the exhibit.  A router received five routes from different routing information sources.  Which two routes does the router install in its routing table? (Choose two)

Exhibit - How2Pass.com
-----------------------------
iBGP route 10.0.0.0/30
RIP route 10.0.0.0/30
OSPF route 10.0.0.0/16
OSPF route 10.0.0.0/30
EIGRP route 10.0.0.1/32

How2Pass Answers:
OSPF route 10.0.0.0/16
EIGRP route 10.0.0.1/32

Shouldn't the correct answers be EIGRP 10.0.0.1/32 and OSPF route 10.0.0.0/30 due to the longest prefix rule?
FYI got this question on the Exam....Would be nice to verify correct answer, anyone?

 Do you know if you got the answer right or wrong?
jmolnar,
I do not know if I got the question correct or not. Cisco does not tell you which questions you missed just percentage of areas tested.

I selected: OSPF route 10.0.0.0/16 and EIGRP route 10.0.0.1/32 which is H2P's correct answers.

Would like further explanation from H2P as to why they feel OSPF route 10.0.0.0/16 is a correct answer as opposed to OSPF route 10.0.0.0/30?

I believe that the answer How2Pass chose is predicated on having the /16 route and the /30 routes pointing to the same next hop destination.  If that were the case then the /16 route would efficiently summarize those four routes.  This is an ambiguity not addressed in the question, however if there are only 2 correct answers this would be the only case that makes sense.

If the /16 and /30 routes pointed to different next hop destinations, then the router would install three routes in its routing table, which would be OSPF route 10.0.0.0/16, EIGRP route 10.0.0.1/32, and one of the /30 routes depending on the next hop destination(s).  If you were to just compare the /30s without any other information present, OSPF has the lowest AD value.

The wording that the routes came from "different routing information sources" definitely makes this confusing and I was similarly frustrated.  Based on the information present in the question I would chose H2P's answer on the test, but if someone were to provide a more definitive answer I would be grateful.
I have the same question related to AN110, in that I would have selected the OSPF 10.0.0.0/30 over OSPF 10.0.0.0/16 due to a /30 having the longer matching prefix. I hope How2Pass can further clarify the question and the explanation for us ?
